International Events - Indoor

International Indoor matches are shot on a "postal" basis, with teams shooting in their home ranges and swapping results via post (usually email).

Some International matches, such as the NZ team matches at the North vs South Inter-Island match, are full TSNZ-team matches, while others, such as the North Island vs Scotland or the BSA Cup Matches, are entered by smaller groups of shooters. The links with overseas shooters that these matches provide are inspiring, and some of the matches have been contested regularly and keenly for many years.

Look out for entry forms for International matches on this page, they will be posted here as they are received each year.

2018 Results- there have been some changes in the UK that have meant we're still waiting on the results from most of our 2018 international matches. They will be posted when they are received.

Home Counties Match

The Home Counties Match is shot at the Inter-Island match annually. Initially it was only an Open match, first shot in 1998, but is now contested between Open (20 + reserves), Women, Junior and Veterans teams (all 10 + reserves) . The "Home Counties" are the counties of England that surround London, andare called that as they were the counties where Members of Parliament could travel home after the end of the Parliamentary Session. The counties generally included in the list are Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey, and Sussex.
